  • @downhilldaddy5282
    @downhilldaddy5282 Рік тому +52

    That’s the correct way to lay it out. Laying it backwards is an automatic bust. And always cut behind the drop piece. Anyway, there is no such thing as a certified welder. You have to test for every company, for every job.

    QUESTIONS FOR AUSTIN 😎👍
    1. Was that all done with 6010 ?
    2. Is there a reason why you use small lenses instead of hoods with large glass?
    3. How many left handed gloves do you go through a year on average?
    4. Do you have a favorite rod manufacturer in 6010 & 7018?
    Keep up the great work, and never loose that BIG smile.
    ✌️😎👍

    • @frostonpc972
      @frostonpc972 Рік тому

      1. Root is done with 6010
      2. its a pancake hood, eyebox so your lense doesn't get light reflection from the sun
      3. depends per welder/ type of job
      4. 6010 and 7018 are different rods for different purpose not different manufacturers

    Laying the bevel back on the throats is key…… don’t have good heat and rod angle and a good bead opening it could be a struggle down there, chance trapping trash and undercutting especially that top edge…. to big an opening may drop in some metal…… Rember it’s a weld test not a grind test…… little extra prep goes along way……always put some heat to it prior to tacking off de-stress the pipe alittle…. Helps with the shrinking of the bead opening so your not jammed up to tight when tacking…… I don’t mind alittle stepping if I have to….. not everything is a drag ……just my experience 🤷‍♂️
